An egg is the organic vessel containing the zygote in which an animal embryo develops until it can survive on its own, at which point the animal hatches. An egg results from fertilization of an ovum. Most arthropods, vertebrates, and mollusks lay eggs, although some do not, such as scorpions and most mammals. Reproductive structures...

Vanilla extract is a solution containing the flavor compound vanillin as the primary ingredient. Pure vanilla extract is made by macerating and percolating vanilla pods in a solution of ethyl alcohol and water.

Line a 9-inch spring form pan with parchment paper on the bottom. Spray the sides of the pan with cooking spray.

Preheat oven to 350°F

Place graham crackers, sugar and butter into a food processor and pulse a few times. Add 1 tbsp water and pulse a few more times until it has a texture of coarse meal.

Gently press the crust into the lined pan. Set aside.

To make the crust:

In a blender add the cream cheese, cottage cheese and lemon zest and blend together until it is really smooth.

Add the eggs one at a time and mix.

Add the vanilla extract, sugar and flour into the cottage cheese mixture and pulse until blended.

Pour the cheesecake batter into the pan. Bake in the oven for about 45 minutes, until the cheesecake is set.

Let it cool on a rack, then place in fridge for at least 4 hours or as long as overnight.

Top with fresh berries if using (or topping of your choice) and cut into 12 slices.

To make the cheesecake filling:

Quite good. And I love the calorie count. My cake was a little soft.  Perhaps in the future I would drain my cottage cheese just a bit.

Tried this last night. The flavor is super good but I think next time I’ll try a water bath for it. It was creamy but not as much as I think it could be and I blended really well before pouring. Otherwise so good! Thanks Gina. Always worth it.

I changed a little. No crust. I used fat free cream cheese and 2 cups 2% cottage cheese and half cup fat free greek yogurt. Really good.less calories

Gina, love this cottage cheese cheesecake! Its just my husband and I. Can I freeze individual slices?

This cheesecake is incredibly delicious!  It’s dense, creamy and has perfect balanced flavor.  It’s not too sweet and was loved by all!

I want to know as well. I don't have one! I suppose I will just try it. If it sticks to the sides a bit, that's what spoons are for! 🤣

For those of US who HATE cottage cheese, this is a game-changer. I've been incorporating "whipped cottage cheese" into several recipes for some time.  Trust me - you will now like cottage cheese. Also, cottage cheese is 1/2 the price of Greek Yogurt, but the protein/fat/calorie count is very close being the similar.
